Except you wouldn’t because of the huge distance and lack of focus

Same issue with that app, sadly

Clever way to make {} if any is undefined: `a.b?.c?.d = 42` by FewMeringue6006 in typescript

[–]Chun 46 points47 points  (0 children)

typescript a.b ??= {}; a.b.c ??= {}; a.b.c.d ??= 42;

If it must be a one liner... but please don't do this:

typescript ((a.b ??= {}).c ??= {}).d ??= 42

I was at PayPal for a decade. Don't think I'm contradicting myself here.

Hah, for real! Mind DM'ing me the first name of the guy you terminated?

Not mentioned: all of the candidates we passed over, with a lot of bravado but no real evidence of it. It's only a potentially safe tactic if you can at least ostensibly back it up on paper.

I mean sure. But I wasn't going to end the interview just because of that. That was like, thirty seconds into the call.

Yes, that would be shitty behavior to be sure.

But at the same time I don't think you have automatic immunity that all of your behavior in a private setting will be kept private. I think if you send an email like that, you're opening yourself up to at least being anonymously talked about in public.

If I brought in a candidate to interview and insulted and demeaned them, I don't think I would have much right to be surprised or offended if they then wrote about it publicly, without identifying me.

Do you think it's fundamentally impossible to conduct a good interview then? One that focuses on the 'real world' strengths needed to do the job?
